Until We Eat Again

Until We Eat Again is a food blog I've been meaning to tell you all about. It's written by a long-distance, vegetarian couple, sharing their recipes and dining adventures. It's hard not to read it and start to get hungry, which is the real test of a good food blog. Anyway, they're running a nut butter contest, where a lucky commenter will receive a jar of New York nut better and a jar of Canadian nut butter. In case you've been wanting to run an internation nut butter taste test!

Oh, and we'd also like to invite Caitlin and Will to come over or come out with us for rocking veggie Indian fare if they find themselves in North Carolina!

(For more food blogs that I've been meaning to tell you again, check the Foodie links in the sidebar.)

When Restaurant Web Pages Attack

We love restaurants. We love trying new restaurants. We find out about restaurants by driving by, and then looking them up online, or by verbal recommendation and then looking them up online, or skipping that tedious social interaction part, and just looking them up online. Anyway, we have this situation quite often:
Me: What are your hours?
Website: Take a look at our menu! It’s a PDF of a screenshot of a scan of a Word document printed on a dishtowel. With fonts!
Me: I don’t care. What are your hours?
Website: Don’t worry, the menu loads in a new window so the music won’t stop. Can I show you some broken images?
Via venomous porridge - A conversation I have every month or so (The whole conversation is well worth reading, I just didn't want to quote the whole post.)
